Default just venting

had another surgery august 8th still cant walk, had surgery last yr also, both surgeries to repair my ankle. Haven't touch the hammerhead since September of last yr because of the first surgery and life, and having my first child, my little buggy driver boy . Anyway I cant do much and all I've been doing is searching for more buggies to buy. I was looking for the past 6 months to find something that needed to be fixed and flip or something I can fix and keep, absolutely nothing. I've been looking the past two weeks, sugery was august 8th there has been 4 buggies I would have bought!!!! are you kidding me, . With all that I'm dying to get back on my feet and get the hammerhead projects underway, cant even remember where I left off on it, but also look for a side project. Of course I've been still posting a lot here but I miss the wrenching, the welding, grinding, wiring, the drawing board, and of course riding threw the woods. Any way just wanted to vent, keep posting the projects guys!

Well, look at the bright side. At least you haven't broken anything on the buggy either.

Hang in there buddy! If you look at it another way, look at the money you saved! I know it probably didn't make you feel any better. Congrats on the little buggy man.

My little man turned 12 this year. I goes by quick! Enjoy it all. I'm 47 so he calls me old man and laughs when I can't hang with him. Loved it when I bought his new Hammerhead though....lol You should have seen the look on his face when the old man and his old Carter talon passed him up!

I like that. Went to doctors again today, they put me in a big boot like the first surgery and really can't walk for another 3 weeks.
